Match report

An overcast day with a damp outfield. ECC won the toss and elected to field. The purpose of this match is to give the middle and lower order batsmen and bowlers more time at the crease. James (0-8 of 2o) & Dan B(3-8 of 3o) opened superbly, followed by Dan J (1-2 of 2o) and Sharpy (0-4 of 2) made it 19 for 3 of 6 overs and nicely in control. Again strong fielding held the boundaries and minimal ewxtras at this stage helped. Long barriers need some work still - but it's a minor pick up! Freddie(1 for 13 of 3o), Jack (1 for 5 of 2o) and Seb (1 for 2of 1 over) all bowled very well indeed - restricting the home side to 62 for 8 of the 20 overs. With a relatively low target and facing some good opening bowling, we were 2 for 4runs early on!, it took Joe (5)and Sharpy (21ret) to steady the ship and pile on the runs - a partnership of 36. Dan J and Dan B took over and afet playing themselves in took the score to 57 at 11 overs, Olli J (1 of 2 balls NO) and Scott (4 of 1 ball NO) wrapped up the innings comfortably. Good captaincy form Ollie today and a much more mature fielding effort form the team. Man of the Match - Dan B for the caught and bowled, bowling stats and attacking batting.
